Champions League

There were some surprises in the Champions league yesterday. Manchester United came from two goals down to beat Braga 3-2. Alan scored in the 2nd minute and added another one after 20 minutes, Manchester United got a goal back via a Javier Hernandez header, then Johnny Evans capitalised after Braga couldn't deal with a corner. And then Javier Hernandez headed United into the lead for the first time in the game after a sublime cross from Tom Cleverley.

Shakhtar Donetsk created an upset by beating reigning champions Chelsea 2-1 in Ukraine. The hosts went ahead after 3 minutes and added another with 52 minutes gone. Oscar grabbed a goal back after 88 minutes but it wasn't enough. It now means that no English team have beaten Shakhtar and that Chelsea's unbeaten record has been broken.
